    Why is it outrageous? He was limited to talking about his research in his official capacity, and he wanted to talk about a bunch of stuff completely outside of his research. Just because you do research on the effects of CO2 on rice nutrient content, doesn't mean you can use your government position to talk about predicting future weather, drought conditions, heat, etc.

But addressing reality would destroy their identity.
